Description
This is the unfinished work moved from SP-3719.
Original description:
User processing in a science platform requires access to data files in the data management (archive). Traditionally, users had to stage (copy) the data from archival storage into storage attached to processing resources to run software on it.
It is feasible to create a tool to allow users to create a link in a science container to a data file in archival storage and access it directly out of storage. Permission checking happens at link creation time. No bytes are copied and user software has read-only random access to the file.
architectural note: there will be a future prototype feature to enable link to data in object store
